What has 9 arms and sucks? Def Leppard. Congratulations to Def Lep lead singer Joe Elliot who is the winner of my brand spankin' new "You're an Arse" award. This interview with the Pittsburgh Post Gazette earned him the award. In this interview, which I stole from melodicrock.com, Elliot bristles at the notion that Def Lep is a hair band and slags Led Zeppelin in the process:http://forums.melodicrock.com/phorum33/read.php?f=1&i=239604&t=239604
Lighten up Joe. Your hair was just a touch better than Billy Ray Cyrus. Quit being so sensitive. I'm sorry you didn't get the respect you think you deserve. I hope your piles of money give you some satisfaction at night you untalented ass clown.
Things could be worse for Joe. He could be Clay Aiken:http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/07/08/people.aiken.ap/index.html
Had a lousy Best Buy experience. Wanted CD-R's that were in their Sunday ad...none in stock. Wanted new Crowded House cd..not in stock. Wanted Nintendo Wii...not in stock. At least Sony is trying to compete with the Wii now......they are lowering the price:http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19674547/
they need to lower it another 100 bucks.

Why do we need debates on pulling out of Iraq? Just get out already:http://www.nytimes.com/2007/07/09/washington/09prexy.html?_r=1&hp=&adxnnl=1&oref=slogin&adxnnlx=1183990038-897mUL5z0Lf8c3UphJiJkg
I watched a little bit of Live Earth over the weekend. Crowded House lost lights but not sound during their set, the Japanese really seemd to like Linkin Park and Richie Sambora looks like a fat drunk. USA Today recaps what you missed (not much...Live Earth sucked):http://blogs.usatoday.com/listenup/
In fact, Live Earth sucked so badly I started a tire fire in protest.
I am a golden god! Oh wait...I'm dead...man tries to be Jim Morrison, man dies. :http://www.nydailynews.com/news/2007/07/09/2007-07-09_jim_morrison_wannabe_killed_in_sixstory_.html
People dig the Transformers movie...a lot:http://breakingnews.nypost.com/dynamic/stories/B/BOX_OFFICE?SITE=NYNYP&SECTION=ENTERTAINMENT
The Transformers should enjoy the top while they can....Harry the boy wizard is coming to kick their morphing ass:http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20044270_20044274_20033259,00.html
Rocklahoma is just days away! What kind of town is Pryor, Oklahoma anyway? Is it the lost city of mulletts? Is there a larger hole in the ozone there due to heavy Aquanet consumption? Is it a town where its always 1987? Pryor's population of 12,000 should grow by at least a few hundred this weekend:http://www.pryorok.com/
More crap as it happens.....

I never realized that Joe Elliot was such a whiny little B**ch! They were one of the ultimate hair bands...I have to admit however, that I did like Def Lep, up until circa 1983, Pyromania...then the guitarist died and the drummer's arm came up missing...things seemed to fall apart after that...
nice "Almost Famous" reference, by the way....
Def Lep owes their success to Mutt Lange. With him they sold tens of millions without him they are nobodies.
The guy in Almost Famous lived. The Jim Morrison idiot was not so lucky.
High & Dry is the only Def Lep album worth a crap. Let me get this straight, Joe Elliot and his band of poofs record poppy multi-vocal layered ballady crap for 20 plus years then whines when nobody takes them seriously? All that hair spray went to his frigging brain.
That Jim Morrison story is why I never frolick when I'm drunk. The only reason this douche lived long enough to die at 27 is because he wore a bicycle helmet as a kid. I'm convinced that bike helmets do more harm than good; kids that were too stupid to make it to their 10th birthday are now living into adulthood and foisting their ignorance upon others.
You can tell by my sunny disposition that I returned to work after a week of vacation...
Here's some random samples of what Joe Elliot's "underrated" (to him) songwriting:
Make love like a man
I'm a man
That's what I am, yeah
Make love like a man
Your kinda man
That's what I am
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's go all the way
Get it night'n'day
Come on, let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
I get hysterical
Hysteria
Oh can you feel it (Oh can you feel it)
Do you believe it (Do you believe it)
It's such a magical mysteria
When you get that feelin',(When you get that feelin')
Better start believin,(Better start believin')
Cause it's a miracle, oh say you will,
Oh babe (Oh can you feel it)
Oh babe (Do you believe it)
Oh (I get hysterical)
Hysterical (Hysteria)
Hysteria (When you get that feelin')
You better believe it (Better start believin')
'Cause it's a miracle
Say you will
Oh baby
Say you will
*What does this even mean? I could go on and on but what's the point? Joe Elliots attitude is what separates his band from the Poisons, Britney Fox's and hell even Warrants of the genre....Bret Michaels knows full well what he and his band stand for....Joe Elliot thinks his band has been passed the torch by Led Zeppelin, the Rolling Stones, and the Beatles...You are not part of the holy trinity Joe....You're a mullet wearing has been in ripped up jeans.
